Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the closing stock, first calculate the cost of goods sold (COGS). Gross profit is 25% on cost, so sales = 1.25 * COGS. Rearrange to find COGS = Sales / 1.25 = 21,32,000 / 1.25 = 17,05,600. Calculate total cost: Opening Stock + Purchases + Carriage Inwards - Return Inwards = 2,13,000 + 16,55,000 + 32,500 - 38,000 = 18,62,500. Closing Stock = Total Cost - COGS = 18,62,500 - 17,05,600 = 1,56,900. However, this doesn't match any options, so recheck calculations or assumptions.
